Raising An Entrepreneur - Help Your Kids Achieve Their Dreams

#Author #RaisingAnEntrepreneur #MargotBisnow

Hi, and welcome to the show!

On today’s show I have the pleasure of welcoming the author of Raising An Entrepreneur, Margot Bisnow, to talk about what parents need to do to support a budding entrepreneur, and the practical steps they can take to give their kids the best chance of succeeding in their professional endeavors.

Margot is a writer, wife, and mom who speaks on raising fearless, creative, entrepreneurial kids who are filled with joy and purpose. She is the author of Raising an Entrepreneur, has a BA in English and an MBA, both from Northwestern, and has spent 20 years in government, mostly in international development, including as an FTC Commissioner and staff director of the President's Council of Economic Advisers. 

In this path breaking book, Raising An Entrepreneur, based on interviews with 70 top entrepreneurs and their moms, Margot provides a guide to help your kids identify their passion and figure out how they can spend their professional lives doing something they love. Margot shows parents that their well-intentioned efforts often boomerang and that by ignoring their kids' skills and interests, they can inadvertently create pressure and anxiety, thwarting their kids' ability to excel and find happiness. Too often, Margot writes,  following your heart is deemed impractical, whereas it’s often exactly what leads to success and fulfillment.

Through this wonderful book, you learn how successful entrepreneurs were raised! Could your children start a company that disrupts existing industries? Or a non-profit that helps people around the world? Or follow their passion as an artist or activist? And most important, lead a life of joy and purpose, to be happy and fulfilled? 

Stick with us during this content-rich call as Margot reveals how to raise creative, confident, resilient, fearless kids who achieve their dreams, through 99 stories of families who did it.
